Components Overview

Fern provides a library of 15+ built-in-components to make your documentation more interactive and engaging. Components are building blocks that you can add to any MDX page.

Usage

Specify a component in your MDX file while writing content. For example, to add a Card component, use the following syntax:

1<Card 
2    title='Open Source' 
3    icon='brands github' 
4    href='https://github.com/fern-api/fern'
5>
6  Give us a star! Fern's CLI & docs source code is available on GitHub. 
7</Card>

This will automatically render a card with the title, icon, and content you specified.

Open Source

Give us a star! The source code to Fern’s CLI is available on GitHub.
